Re: North Korea

It's a safe bet that special forces will have already trained to take control of the few sites in North Korea that are capable of launching an ICBM and likely with quiet agreement from China and Russia as neither of them need this instability continuing for any length of time. This will have been a training scenario for some years as you didn't need a mensa level IQ to see where this was all going and scenarios as well for Pakistan should an extremist islamist party take power. Despite Trump's rhetoric small unit operations to neutralise any missile's North Korea has is the most likely action as that would be more surgical and agreeable to both China and Russia over any sort of missile strike or bombing by aircraft.

North Korea does possess a lot of conventional weaponry but it's years out of date and not upto much beyond mass bombardment of the city of Seoul to cause mass civilian casualties and they would only get a few salvos off before being hit by land and air forces. At this point how much stability or even common sense remains in the upper echelon of the NK regime is anyone's guess and I'd be surprised if some form of military action doesn't happen within the next couple of month's. Dangerous times for all of us and could end up being a devastating demonstration of what happens when you ignore a problem you don't think can be a problem outside of their own border's.
